Description J.O. Aho 2008-12-24 09:53:06 UTC
Version 3.8a of ctwm has been around for a long time and gentoo still only has the 3.7 in portage.

Here we have an updated ebuild for 3.8a

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -pv ctwm

Actual Results:  
[ebuild     U ] x11-wm/ctwm-3.7

Expected Results:  
[ebuild     U ] x11-wm/ctwm-3.8a

ctwm supports only gnome, which makes it unnecessary to include gnome support by default as Gentoo only supplies gnome2.

ctwm 3.8 ebuild

This allows you decide if you want to build ctwm with jpeg, xpm or sound support and also with a desktop file for gdm if selecting USE=gnome

desktop file for gdm

This will execute the /etc/X11/Sessions/ctwm file, in case some one wants to customize it, then starting ctwm from gdm should be the same as with any other login manager.

Manifset file with the proper md5sum and so on

Including this file, so that md5sum and other check sums for the files are included.

updated ctwm 3.8a ebuild

Updated creation date and version in the head of the ebuild.

A question: There is a colection of different ctwm themes, would a such thing be included in the ctwm ebuild itself or would it be possible to see a new ebuild for that?

If the author doesn't include them in the tarball, then we usually don't want to add them ourselves. You may want to write a separate ebuild (ctwm-themes) if needed.

Fixed. I didn't introduce the new USE flags. Maybe some other time.
